Launching the Daily Newswire email service - 24/01/2018

Published: Wed, 01/24/18

We are pleased to formally announce the launch of The Digital Insurer Daily Newswire service.

For the last few months we have been collecting and aggregating the best in digital insurance news from some of the world's leading commentators and sources.

Our aim is to provide an email service that keeps you up to date on the latest digital insurance news. We will select five articles each day that we think will be of general interest and there will also be a link to the Newswire for all the articles on the day that we have aggregated. When you are in the Newswire area on The Digital Insurer website you can then search for different items of news by topic, media source and date.

You can see a sample Newswire email for today below.

Those registered for the Newswire will start receiving the dally email from Thursday 25th Jan.​​​​​​​
We will look to further improve and refine the Newswire as we go forward and our goal is to make this the most comprehensive source of news on digital insurance available, and to showcase the media companies, bloggers and journalists who share their knowledge and enthusiasm for the subject. If we missed a story or you have a news item for publication then please submit your link to news@the-digital-insurance.com and our team will review and add it, provided it meets our editorial guidelines.

Lastly, if you have an interest in research and reporting on digital insurance and can spare 2-3 hours a month then you might like to become a volunteer News Correspondent. We have people around the world who do this role and it really helps us to get diverse access to news on the ground. Our goal is to reach at least 50 News Correspondents over the course of this year and to have at least 40 countries covered. The more the better, as we firmly believe digital insurance is a global endeavour and the more we can share information the better for the industry. Contact me directly for more.
